Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Lomachenko Would Have To Face Gary Russell Jr.

[DannYankee]

Both have done about the same as pros sounds about right. I have no idea how this fight could end up being for a belt tho, and then people wonder why belts don't really mean much anymore.

isn't loma with top rank? or am i wrong?

It'll go to purse bid. One of the only thing the sanctioning bodies are good for: forcing fights between TR and GB fighters.

He is, but TR Vanes fought GBP Lara when eliminator ordered, went to purse bid. This is a similar situation, only question what TV network it' be on. HBO no longer does business with GBP, and while SHO hasn't made any public statements, they pretty much don't work with TR.

Why are they rushing Lomachenko? Who did he upset? He couldn't beat a shot Salido and he didn't look like a world beater. Gary is licking his chops, he's a lot faster than Salido at this time and he can be nasty too. Lomachenko should slow down a little.

Richard is a prick

The experience Lomachenko obtain in the Salcido fight will pull him over the top against Russell I think Russell will come up with some lame excuse not to fight

Good one Schaefer..."Let's see who has the deeper pockets"...Go ahead and win that battle.

Arum concedes...Don't think he's willing to break the bank on Russell Jr. - Lomachenko
